We have six dogs as of right now~
The first dog that I remember having was Honey a golden retriever who loved cats and kids. She was the perfect dog. Until construction started across our street and they used dynamites. Honey would freak out and get out of our yard. She always ran down to the school. Well we did everything we could to stop her but she kept getting out. The school said that the next time Honey runs to the school they would call the Humane Society. We came home and Honey didn't come to greet us. Holly, Hope and I ran around calling "HONEY!!!". She didn't come. A couple of days latter mommy checked the Humane Society to see if she got a home. The man said that golden retrievers were(are) popular. She was such a good dog I'm sure she is happy.
Then our friends monstrous black lab bread with their neighbors brown lab. So our friends got the pick of the litter but they didn't want another dog. So they said we could get the puppy. At six weeks of age the owner of the female dog said that if we wanted a puppy we would have to come and get it 'cause he didn't want them. So we went to his house and saw all of the puppies (I liked a little brown one). We then got Rocky our big Canadian, black lab. We all had names we wanted so we put them in a bowl. And out came Rocky. He is now nine years old.
Mommy started a sport called Flyball with Rocky. She trained and ran him. We had a friend in Flyball who knew someone who rescued a six month old dog. We were looking for a dog anyway so they told us about her. She turned out to be an all black border collie. She came with the name Sophia (which we changed to Sophie). Holly and I trained and ran her with the help of our friends on Catchers on the Fly. Sophie is now my dog. She is the best dog EVER!!! She always wants to please us, she is very smart and she is easy to train. I love her immensely. She is now six.
Next we got Houston. Mommy started looking at the Border collie rescue and talked daddy into buying Houston. He was physically and mentally abused we couldn't touch him for three days. In fact he was suppose to be Holly's flyball dog (it didn't work out) He is our couch potato/mascot. If fact he has come out of his shell and is the cutest love bug. We even got him to fetch a ball and do half of flyball. He is a really fun dog being what we think is half Corgi and half sheltie.

After Houston we got the terrible Cairn Terrier called Sandy. He could get past us when we were going out of our fence. Boy was it annoying. He was always getting out and running around. Luckily he decided that he liked us and stopped running away. I think he is four now.
Then we got Jazz. A cute tri colored border collie who needed a home. She turned out to be Holly's dog. She was almost trained in flyball. At first she was kinda freaky. If us kids were playing around, throwing pillows and shouting Jazz will run into the bathroom! She still does it but she is getting better with visitors and has become a good family pet. Now she can't play flyball anymore because her joints and wrists will swell up and she gets stiff. She is four years old.
FINALLY we got Zeba. Daddy thought of the name and it stuck. She is a border-jack. She is Hope's black and white puppy. She likes to jump on people and has really long legs. She is over a year old.
So these are our dogs. We'll put up pictures later.
If you're thinking about getting a dog we recommend researching the breed you want. Goldens are good family dogs while a border collie must have something to do or they will find something (usually digging or other destructiveness). God Bless Heather
